Bomb threat on QE2 prompts coast-to-coast ransom scare
A New York caller claimed a $350000 ransom for bombs aboard the Queen Elizabeth 2. British bomb disposal experts parachuted onto the liner in mid Atlantic and found no bombs after a thorough search. Cunard said no ransom was paid and the ship continued toward Cherbourg and Southampton with the threat treated as serious but likely hoax.
